Plumber for Geyser Installations

Plumbing work that keeps Epping homes and buildings running: this residential plumbing company needs a trade-tested plumber. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

This post is Epping-based, with most of your time spent at a residential plumbing company.

• Order fittings from the supplier and keep the van stocked
• Issue plumbing Certificates of Compliance for completed installations
• Service booster pumps, pressure tanks and water storage tanks
• Clear blocked drains with a rodding machine and inspect lines with a drain camera
• Work on the emergency call-out roster for after-hours bursts

• PIRB registration as a Licensed Plumber, so you can issue plumbing CoCs
• Working knowledge of SANS 10252-1 and SANS 10254
• Plumbing trade test certificate or an Occupational Certificate: Plumber (NQF 4)
• Fit enough to lift a 150-litre geyser with a helper and work in tight roof spaces
• Code 08 licence and a clean driving record
• At least 3 years as a qualified plumber, including geyser replacements

• SAQCC Gas registration for LPG installations
• Experience with insurance repair work and claim paperwork

• Paid PIRB renewal fee
• Fully stocked service van with a fuel card
• Call-out bonus for every after-hours job you complete
• Protective clothing and safety boots replaced yearly

• Put your PIRB number at the top of your CV. Insurance contractors check it before they read anything else.
• Do not list every plumbing task you have ever done. Focus on geysers, drainage and CoCs, which is what these jobs pay for.
